A true ode to insects, this body of work questions the practices of intensive monoculture that involve the use of chemicals, habitat destruction, and loss of biodiversity.

A model of a spray bottle, associated with chemicals, has been designed, molded, and reproduced in three copies. The creation of these bottles employs technologies such as photogrammetry, 3D modeling, and 3D printing. The bottles have been modified so that the spray nozzle points toward the user rather than the intended point of impact. Each bottle is adorned with an icon representing three scourges of agriculture: weeds, fungal diseases and harmful insects. These objects are finished with a white glaze that partially reticulates, creating an effect reminiscent of melted plastic, eroded by chemicals.

Resting on a base lower than the previous one are three cushions of raw porcelain, each with a unique shape. Each cushion features representations of flowers and dead insects, shaped from paper clay. This fragile and ephemeral still life pays tribute to those beings that generate life.

In conclusion, I present a simple observation: it is time for the population, especially the Westerners, to consider a new way of living. I offer an alternative lifestyle where humanity no longer exploits the living, systematically destroys habitats and undermines biodiversity. I have designed a raw clay ivy that represents humanity, which, despite its high density, provides a safe and nurturing environment for life to thrive. At its center, a dove, a symbol of hope, finds shelter, while insects settle among its abundant, nourishing vegetation.

Participatory in nature, my body of work invites spectators to take action. The public is encouraged to carve a value onto a piece of raw clay, one that can be shared to ensure the sustainability of life on Earth for all living beings. This piece of clay is then added to the ivy, contributing to the representation of a better future.
